He lowered his head, raised his left palm and turned it to face Nako, then made a fist with his palm, placed it on his chest and gave it a few gentle hammer blows.

"Someone once asked me if I still miss her now? My answer would be...

It’s not that I have this tone sometimes, but it’s always the case.

Then she asked me again, have you ever had feelings for other girls who confessed to you or girls who appeared next to you when you were falling out of love? I answered, sometimes there are such moments.

Later, she kept looking at me, just looking at me, and then she spoke. In fact, we were both waiting, or one of us was already waiting."

"What are you waiting for?" Nako asked eagerly.

"Wait for the other party to let go first."

The scene of talking with Huang Lizhi at the beach flashed through his eyes.

It's just that Takiichi refuses to admit that he is in a humble state of emotion and a chaotic state that wants to break the shackles, and he doesn't want to be thought of as being in such a chaotic state.

"So, I'm sorry, Nako. Just think of it as a formal farewell to her. I must go to Tokyo to say goodbye to her."

Nako lowered his head, his body trembling faintly.

She felt the "rebellious" atmosphere from Taki Yi. This may be the first or last time in his life that he indulges himself.

"Have you thought of a way to say goodbye to her?"

"Yes." Taki raised the corner of his mouth and his eyes suddenly brightened.

"There is a place where Sakura once filmed a movie, and I buried a secret there.

To be honest Nako, I... really hope that Sakura can come over at that time, one period at a time, do you understand that feeling?"

A gust of wind blew by, picking up debris and weeds on the ground and blowing off the cherry blossom petals on the trees.

Takiichi followed the floating petals and gradually rose up and was swallowed by the sky.

It was at that time that my eyes penetrated by the sun seemed to see a mirage.

In the increasingly transparent and distorted picture, Sakura is passing the Tokyo Tower in the surging crowd.

"Five centimeters per second, it seems that this speed is not very fast~~"

In the haziness, he saw a petal leaning against Sakura's hair, and whispered unconsciously.

"It can even be said to be very slow, even people walking faster than her."

Suddenly hearing him call Sakura's name, Nako suddenly clenched his fists.

She wanted to say something, such as "Stop torturing your heart for that selfish person," but Takiichi continued.

"But what if this speed is maintained for thirteen years? From the past, to the present, to the future, thirteen years.

If we hadn't broken up, I should have married Sakura in three years.

Even if she can't do it now when she is sixteen, she should be able to do it when she becomes an adult in the future.

Therefore, it can be calculated through this formula, 5CM/S X13 years X365 days X24 hours X60 minutes X60 seconds = 20498.4 kilometers."

Picking up branches from the ground, he wrote formulas on the soil next to a cherry blossom tree.

Throwing away the branch, Takiichi continued, "20,498.4 kilometers. This distance is exactly the distance of half a circle around the earth, and it is also the distance between the South Pole and the North Pole."

"The furthest distance in the world." Nako looked up at his back, pursed her lips.

"From the beginning to now, the love is still there.

I have always thought that 13 is the luckiest number for Sakura and me. The day we first met was the 13th.

When we decided to separate, the last time we met was on platform No. 13.

Our two hearts have been in harmony for so many years. Even if we meet again in the future, at least we have reached the farthest distance on earth."

So, no matter what, I have to say goodbye in the most familiar place.

"Sure enough, Takiichi-chan has never changed, even after being separated from Sakura."

Nako raised his head and smiled again on his face.

"Separation changes a person's mood, not his character. Moreover, for what I insist on..."

A thunder resounded throughout the sky, and Shin Yoona, who was sitting on the bench, was so frightened that she screamed.

The two people's thoughts and conversation were forcibly interrupted.

"Ah~~"

The three of them looked at the sky in unison, staring at the sign that it was still sunny.

Taki looked at the trembling little girl who finally recovered after being comforted in Nako's arms, and fell into deep thought.

"Faint thunder, hazy sky."

I don’t know if someone actually said this in real life, or it just came naturally to Takiichi’s mind.

But at this moment, he woke up and raised his head to look for Nako.

Just a few steps away from the bench, Nako used her petite body to hug Shin Yoona, who was sitting at the same height as her, sometimes comforting her and looking at him with a smile.

Only then did Takichi realize that it was Nako's voice.

Along with the ups and downs of countless memories, under the noisy sound of thunder on a sunny day.

As soon as Taki stepped forward, he put one hand on Shen Yoona's head and stroked it softly, and with the other hand... he began to hold Nako's body in his arms.

"Hey? Taki...Takiichi-chan?"

Nako leaned against Takiichi's chest with wide eyes. His consciousness was obviously out of control, and even his words were somewhat delayed.

Although there were many times when I deeply envied Sakura and longed to be embraced by him.

But facing this person, she was still so timid.

Shen Yoona blinked quietly, and her peripheral vision kept scanning the two people.

“It feels so good~~”

She was deeply fascinated by the big warm hand above her head. She lowered her eyes obediently for a moment, while the temperature on her pretty face increased unknowingly.

The fear caused by the thunder can be seen here as being driven away by the sense of security that suddenly blessed the whole body and has nowhere to hide.

But after a while, Nako stopped comforting her.

Instead, he closed his eyes and felt the heartbeats of himself and Takiichi, and the warm embrace.

"I hope the rain comes and can keep you here."

He spoke for the first time in a long time and said such words. Each word struck Nako's heart with a gentle tone...

"If possible, I really don't want you to leave." Takiichi lowered his head and smelled the fragrance of Nako's hair, and said in a low voice.

"Me too... However, Takiichi-chan, please believe that as long as you need me, I will come over at any time. No matter what time it is, I believe that Takiichi-chan can face everything well."

As he spoke, Nako plucked up the courage to raise his hands and hugged his waist.

Yes, when I joined HKT48, whether it was the initial selection or subsequent activities.

Without his constant support, perhaps I would have to endure more bad things.

The care and help that seniors can bring are limited, and even Sakura is no exception.

So Nako was even in that kind of despair where he was helpless and had to rely on himself to get through everything. What was it like to be alone?

What's more, I was young at the time, and even though I had seniors who loved me, I still needed to look at other people's eyes all the time because of my etiquette and humility. There were so many people who didn't fit in.

Until she met this person...this person brought light to her life.

This is the boy who gave her courage and whom she can remember for the rest of her life.

"How are you?"

After a long time, Taki released the palm that was placed on Nako's back and bent down to look directly into Shin Yoona's big eyes.

"Yeah~~it's okay."

Shin Yoona nodded obediently, her eyelashes trembling.

"What should I do? My heartbeat is getting faster and faster."

"Sunny days and thunderous situations. We often encounter situations like this here. I didn't expect to encounter them so soon, so I couldn't tell you."
